1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

introductionThe Risk Assessment and Prediction Tool (RAPT) is a preoperative screening tool developed to predict discharge disposition after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but its predictive value for same-day discharge (SDD) has not been investigated. The aims of this study were (1) to assess RAPT's ability to predict SDD after primary THA and TKA and (2) to determine a cutoff RAPT score that may recognize patients appropriate for SDD.

methodsData were retrospectively collected from patients undergoing primary THA and TKA at a single tertiary care center between February 2020 and May 2021. A receiver operating characteristic curve was generated to choose a cutoff value to screen for SDD. Logistic regression analysis was done to identify factors including age, BMI, or RAPT score that may be associated with SDD.

resultsThree hundred sixty-one patients with preoperative RAPT scores were included in the analysis of whom 147 (42.6%) underwent SDD. A cutoff of ≥9 was identified for TKA and ≥11 for THA. RAPT had a predictive accuracy of only 66.7% for SDD, whereas the discharge plan documented in the preoperative note was 91.7% accurate. DISCUSSION: Although there is a positive association between RAPT and SDD, it is not a useful screening tool given its low predictive accuracy.
